Hi!
Until now (e.g., with R2024b), whenever I needed to update my MATLAB in Linux, I used to run
sudo /usr/local/MATLAB/R2024b/bin/glnxa64/MathWorksUpdateInstaller
but I cannot find the equivalent executable for R2025a. Did it change name/location? Or what is the suggested update approach, now?
Note that I can’t simply run the updater from the MATLAB desktop, because as normal user I don’t have privilegies to write in the MATLAB root directory. And I can’t start MATLAB as root, either, because of the name in the license.
Thanks in advance!Hi!
